Ratings & Reviews for GutterFoam Original Foam K Style (5-in x 4-ft) Gutter Guard

We had the screens over our gutters before we bought these but these have worked much better!

quality

purchased two cases (18 per). qual1ty of each piece in box varied in box. some were more open weave like a brillo pad, but some in case were more like foam rubber, which heavy rain ran down roof and poured right over the gutter.

Beware- the water has to go somewhere

Because water can’t be absorbed fast enough during a torrential downpour, it spills over the gutter. Since water always drains somewhere, it could end up in your basement.

Gutter Stuff = Great Stuff

Was a bit hesitant at first about stuffing Gutter Stuff into my gutters. Couldn't beat the simplicity as it's not that technical! Cleaned the gutters out (for the last time) and in it went. Very easy to install with very little to no modifications. Used a weed puller garden tool to get underneath gutter hangers and a utility knife to cut Gutter Stuff at the trough ends. TIP: Cut at a 45 degree angle when installing around the gutter turns.

Gutter guard

water did not flow thru fast enough so ended up spilling over top of gutter.

Gutter guard foam easy to install

We have been having issues with the gutters on our horse barn, a fried recommended this product so I purchased 24 of them and we installed in a few hours. It has rain since installed and the water flows through right into the rain barrels with no debris. An excellent product that also won't leave you broke

Cuts easy

Was too wide for my gutter, but it cuts easy to make it fit.

Great, in the right location.

I installed these foam gutter guards 3.5 years ago. They were easy to install and worked fine for the first year. However, I have a Willow oak and several pine trees in my yard and the pine needles and small twigs from the oak accumulate and become embedded in the foam preventing the water from entering the foam mesh as designed. I have tried cleaning the debris from the foam with a water jet, a leaf blower and a broom without much success. I'm going to have to replace or discard the foam. The p...

Wierd install

I thought these would work out but they didn't. So I cut them and used them only in the area of the downspouts on my gutters.Cleaned out my gutters,Just waiting for the rains to come? At least the will protect the drains? The hangers for the gutters are a problem with theses "foam" protectors

Seem to be good. Time will tell the story

Easy to cut/install. Watch the video. One issue is that mine were 47" long , not 48" as stated. Not a big deal unless you install 10 in a row and then end up 10" short ! Buy and extra one and save yourself a return trip.

Not great for Douglas Fir needles.

I needed a single length to fill in some gaps on a new construction home. The product does a good job preventing clogged gutters for have a tendency to be clogged themselves, especially with Douglas Fir needles here in the Pacific Northwest. I still need to brush them out a few times a year.

Outside the normal

Have gutter guards but a small opening exist between the gutter and the guard that allow birds to build a nest under the weather protection provided by the guard. I use the foam guard to fill the void and thus have no nest.

Cabot Tintable exterior Stain andSealer

Very good Stain and Sealer. East to work with and clean up is nice.

Worth the expense

A little on the pricey side. Somewhat cumbersome to install if you've never used them before. Overall, worth the price & frustration to keep your gutters clean.

Easy Install

These were incredibly easy to install. I am just hoping they hold up for a few years. Much easier to install than trying to stuff the wire grates into the gutters.
